 Tom - Have you or any other LUGger had a problem with some of the Solms
 M6s not being able to open the Leica cassettes.  Marc Small says that he
 has an early Wetzlar version that works fine but he thinks that Solms took
 the mechanism out on later models for some reason.  Does this have any
 bearing on the working of your winder?

<< between 37-39 exposures per roll. I have made a little device, similar to
the
 Leica Handwinding stick ( which I use for my Leica cassettes) that holds the
 spool and that you just "spin" to spool up the film. The Leica reloadable
 cassettes are great, but they require some dexterity to use and with some of
 the new film bases, Tech Pan in particularly, it is almost impossible to rip
 off >>
